WATCH: Dem leaders dare GOP not to vote for Trump deal

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told The Hill on Thursday that she doubts conservatives will follow up on threats to oppose the fiscal deal brokered by President Trump and congressional Democrats, which includes aid to communities hit by Hurricane Harvey.

“Some of them are from Texas, some are from Florida and Louisiana, and they are going to vote for Harvey,” she said.

Schumer added that “our votes in the Senate are pretty good.”

The Senate on Thursday approved the package brokered by Trump and Democrats in an 80-17 bill. It would extend the debt limit and fund the government through Dec. 8, and provide $15 billion in disaster aid.
